Nortel GPS hard to hold lock reciently

I have a Nortel/Trimble GPSDO which has been holding lock for the last month – at least it’s been in lock whenever I have thought to check it.  But it seems like for the last several days LH has been indicating “RECOVERY MODE” or “OCXO COMP” instead of PHASE LOCKED.

Appreciate any suggestions.  I really don’t know what I’m looking at with the LH screen so the reason for this is likely literally in front of my eyes but I just don’t know enough to interpret what I’m seeing.
